I think a civil debate can be had without questioning the Gracious Professionalism of individuals on the other side of the debate. This is quickly becoming the equivalent of calling a person a racist or nazi, as it appears to be meant to silence the opposition.

You are right, some of the FRC community has unfortunately turned to using the term Gracious Professionalism as a blanket statement for attacking anyone or anything they disagree with. Hopefully some day we can steer away from this behavior.
